Ghazi Stadium
Stadium in Kabul, Afghanistan
Ghazi Stadium (Dari: ورزشگاه غازى; Pashto: غازي لوبغالی) is a multi-purpose stadium located southeast of the Shahr-e Naw neighborhood in Kabul, Afghanistan, across from Chaman-e-Hozori and Id Gah Mosque. The stadium is mainly used for local football training and matches.[3] Nearby are the Afghanistan Football Federation Stadium, the Kabul International Cricket Stadium, and other grounds and facilities for sports.
Ghazi Stadium was built during the reign of King Amanullah Khan in 1923, who is regarded as Ghazi (Hero) for the Afghan victory in the Third Anglo-Afghan War and gaining independence for his nation after the Anglo-Afghan Treaty of 1919. It was last renovated in 2011.[2] The stadium has the capacity to accommodate 25,000 spectators.
